BAKER, LA – A teacher in Louisiana lost it the other day and is now in jail after reportedly choking a 6-year-old student.

The incident happened on the campus playground of an unnamed school where a 6-year-old girl was doing something that really got under 65-year-old Mildred Russ’ skin and had her losing any semblance of patience or control.

First she wrapped her legs around the girl to keep her from moving then tied the girl’s sweater around her neck, squeezing it every time she tried. Russ finally dragged the girl to the principal’s office, pulling her out of her shoes in the process.

For her actions, Russ was arrested on a charge of cruelty to a juvenile and booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison. I know some will come in here and back this teacher in some fashion, citing disrespectful kids, lack of parenting, etc, etc. But I don’t choke disrespectful kids in the grocery store or in my neighborhood, whether they deserved it or not. If I ever do, I would deserve to be in jail just like Mrs. Russ.

I’m not saying teachers shouldn’t be able to use any form of physical contact to restrain a disruptive or physically combative child, but even as someone who would love to see the paddle back in schools so these kids could get a taste of what I got after I punched Wesley Floyd in the chest in 4th-grade, choking a kid with their own shirt is a bit much. Just call the cops and let ‘em Tase the kid if it has gotten that bad.

Speaking of teachers, I never witnessed a teacher choke a kid when I was in school. I did have one in 2nd-grade that would grab your face with one hand and squeeze it, however. Nothing more humiliating than having her squeeze your face in front of the class, then you answering “yes ma’am” with a pair of fish lips after she asks you if you are going to stop talking.

Whenever someone starts choking me, I immediately start masturbating furiously. That normally ends it pretty quick, but I can usually finish up anyway.

I gotta agree with Morbid about choking the kid being pretty indefensible; but while I don’t sympathize with Teacher-Teacher I can empathize.

I bet she’s had to put up with little rat-bastards for going on more than a decade at a least, completely unable to do anything about them. Then one day it all came out, I doubt the kid was doing something especially egregious even, it was just one…more….thing for Teacher-Teacher.

It wasn’t the kid was being particularly bad, it was this kid won the lottery cooking off the last millimeter of fuse to the powder-keg brewing in this lady for some time I imagine.

Optimus_past_my_Prime

I can’t say that I remember any teachers doing stuff like this. We had this one asshole in high school that liked to poke people in the chest while yelling at them. I do remember this one kid in the second grade, who must’ve been around 11% retarded as he was about five or six years older than the rest of us, who tried to put a whomping on a female teacher. She won.

WOW this 6 year old must have been Superman’s daughter to require this much force to restrain her! Let’s get her some UFC training stat!

Well I agree with you Morbid … no excuse for this grown ass old lady to ruff up this 6 year old juvenile delinquent … and regardless of what the little heifer did, there are policies in place that apparently this teacher chose not to follow.A bunch of wrongs – by who ever, never = 1 right.This kid should be allowed to grow up,go to McDonald’s one day,attempt to assault a fry cook and get her ass whoop right there on the spot – but as a grown lady man – not choked,by her own clothes while still only 6 years old.PS – I’m against paddling at school,and not too fond of that being done at home either.

Yea – what scud420 said …

WTF?!? A six year old. She pinned and choked a 6 year old with her own sweater and then dragged her out of her damn shoes to the principal’s office. Forget being the parent, if I had been the principal and known about this, I would’ve put a beat down on this hag like she was a dirty old rug. I hope she gets the max sentence for her crime. Effin’ bitch.

I know this was a typo on your part, but it’s so hilariously apropos. Sometimes, I feel like that’s exactly what’s happening. Everyone who can’t handle kids is flocking to the teaching profession.

Err .. question … did you mean to write that maybe she shouldn’t be a teacher ? Or were you poking fun at her teaching ability by saying “you should be a fucking teacher!” ?

I can’t empathize with this woman at all. There are jobs in this world where you need to have control of yourself and teaching is one of those. I actually started college thinking I was going to be a high school science teacher. I did one semester of interning and decided I probably was not teacher material. Likewise, I am also not a nurse, social worker, or funeral director. Sometimes kids are snotty, but there is no reason to treat a 6 year old child like that ever.

Anonymous

My first grade teacher lost her teaching credentials for doing something similar, years after I left her class. She was a tough teacher, but I liked her, and so did most of the other kids. She actually was a really good teacher, now that I think about it- she also helped guide her students towards hobbies that fit their personalities and was involved with her students in activities outside of school. She organized the school plays and took a couple of us to the state spelling bee. I still have books that she pointed me to.

Huh. Hadn’t thought about her in years…

Hekate

well i see teachers in Lousiana are just as batshit insane as when i attended 3-4 grades there… I had one teacher.. Ms. Lastrapes.. she would wing text books at us if we spoke in class and that bitch would hit the mark every time-head or gut depending on where you were. She got fired when a homeroom Mom caught her doing it.

but there is no reason to treat a 6 year old child like that ever.” I reserve my opinion on the “ever” portion of your statement – till I hear what the little kid did … there have been 6 year old murderers.

I am reasonably sure you are correct.
My point is mainly directed at the little kids who do murder,and commit other violent type crimes.I don’t think they should ever be placed back out into an unsuspecting society – at least not with zero record of their crime existing.If you commit certain crimes I think at the very least there should be a permanent record,regardless of the age you were when you committed the crime.

My seventh grade social studies teacher would throw desks at the the kids who misbehaved. Once when my brother was misbehaving, teacher got in his face and was yelling, ended up standing on my brothers foot, and he was a big man so my bro. said it hurt like a bitch. (This was after corporal punishment in the classroom was outlawed, but he was a war vet, so the school board couldn’t/wouldn’t fire him.) I loved that guy. He had the best stories and would sometimes have flashbacks in class (some of them intentionally brought on by students) It made for some really interesting learning.

I especially love the grannie sweater she is wearing in her mug shot. It adds to it.

A six year old? Look, kids are dicks. I get that. I have kids and sometimes I think they suck but if you can’t deal with their bullshit – it’s time to get out of the business working with kids. DONE AND DONE, Grandma.

http://truecrimereport.com iLLusionS

I agree Morbid…If you can’t handle kids you are in the wrong line of work, as a teacher..I don’t care how bad the little shits are, you can’t just choke ‘em up….If I can’t choke my own kid up, a teacher damn sure better not. But I grew up in the “paddle at school ages” as well.. When I was in High School one of our Phys Ed. teachers was escorting a male student away from the girls side when this student had a hall pass, and was NOWHERE NEAR the halls and was NOT in the class…we were outside..So our Gym Teacher is taking him by the arm…and leading him back toward the building along side the football feild. The next thing we know Clifton swings on Mr Bono.And then they go to the ground…Mr Bono wasn’t striking the student back or anything, just basically trying to restrain him….we had to write a summary of what we saw. Silly me who prided myself as a writer back then, got all detailed and descriptive in what I saw….and what did I get for my creative writing skills? A subpoena to court for being a witness…They kept wanting to know in court if Mr. Bono actually struck the student back..but he honestly never did..he just tried to protect himself until the other Gym teacher got over..which was coincidentally his brother ALSO named Mr. Bono.

I can remember getting picked up by my shirt and belt loop once but never choked with my own clothing. Grandma needs to retire.

I feel for teachers, because I don’t think they should have to be
disciplinarians to this extent. Kids go to school to for an education
and teachers should be able to do only that – teach. They don’t get paid
to deal with a parent’s job. And if discipline has to be meted out in
school, that should be between administrators and parents.

That was a favorite past time when in was raining and we couldn’t be outside egging houses and breaking windows. LOL, j/k. But yes, I made lots of prank phone calls back in the day. You haven’t lived til you call a bowling alley and ask if they have ten pound balls. When they reply yes, you say “well then, how do you walk?”

That’s right up there with calling a Grocery store and asking –
“Do you have Olive Oil in a can ?”
When they say “Yes”
we would say –
“Well Popeye called, and he wants you to let her out,right now.”
Kinda lame,but it was harmless fun.

At our high school teachers and students fought all the time. Students would throw chairs, teachers would put em in a choke hold as the kid tried to book it before security came, teachers would attempt to break up fights only to get popped in the face. Ah, the good ol’ days. I suppose we were a little barbaric.

I was thinking the kid was probably the wired one on something and that is why teacher couldn’t handle him.

I normally choke my chicken, and on bad days my wife, but never the children as they are my future care takers!!! And karma could be a bitch!

So what you are telling me, if I come over on Halloween dressed up as a teenager with a stiffy in my pants, you won’t teach me, render first aid or council me before shooting my ass off your front porch after setting a funeral for me ?????

Robert

My wife had worked with special-ed ,high risk students for years in elementary school. And after 8 hours a day with all these little fuckers (some on meds, some not) she would come home, go straight to the bedroom, close blinds and eyes for 1 hour to rest. If you bothered her she would rip your fucking arms and head off. She is the sweetest, giving person I know. Seven years was enough, classes got bigger and so did the kids. She worked with 7-8-9 year old’s and many physically challenged the teachers and hit and would bite. One teacher snapped and hit back, guess who got to get a new job? Each case is different, but 6 ain’t always what it used to be.

Robert

He wasn’t retarded, he was a democrat!!!

Ya, maybe she is better off as a parole officer.

I had a music teacher in second grade who grabbed me around the neck because I was goofing off, dragged me to the front of the room, and screamed at me for several minutes. She didn’t actually choke me, but I thought she was going to. I cried all day but I wouldn’t tell any other teachers what happened. I finally told my mom. Teacher was gone soon… I wasn’t the only complainer, turns out.

Nobody liked you, Miss Cozad! Also you are fat and old. Take that.

Athena

It takes a very, VERY special personality to work in that field for any substantial period of time (a personality I know I don’t have). But anyone short of Mother Teresa has their limits. Just an hour of rest every night? That’s amazing. I’d probably turn into a cutter. Or mutilate neighborhood cats. Or develop an addiction to prostitutes.

Because I don’t do any of that stuff currently. Just in case anyone was wondering.

wyrosjr

No telling how much good that she did and now will only be known for the bad.

Robert

I was hoping she would turn into a sex maniac (just for me) not all the neighbors and shit.

“If discipline has to be meted out?” How many corrections does a normal parent have to make in a normal day? Teachers have to function as the parent when at school. Kids don’t just magically change and behave because they are at school. School boards and administrators very distinctly put the onus of discipline on the teachers. Principals want anything but a referral. Your post conveys a lack of comprehension of what schools do these days. I wish we could just teach.

wyrosjr

Or rather the lack of caffeine can make one very irritable. One of my peers had a rough day when her new coffeemaker broke today.

Anonymous

Frankly I am proud to be way out of touch with the public school system today. Discipline may be meted out by teachers now but it wasn’t when I was in school nor
with my children – and that wasn’t very long ago. Teachers were referring
students to the office all the time because they didn’t have the time to
continually disrupt the class to discipline students. They had to
teach.

LuvsHorror

I got paddled once in school. Wonder what this girl did, this teacher is 65, she should have seen it all by now.

LuvsHorror

If a teacher so much as looks at a kid crossed eyed they get fired or suspended. There is no discipline. I bet even the parents couldn’t control this kid.

That is exactly what I was thinking. She is probably a very good effective teacher. Sad way to end a career….assuming she doesn’t go back after this.

I always assume that kids act up worse at home than they do elsewhere so I am inclined to agree with you.

I think the difference when I was coming up is that most kids were afraid to piss the teacher off so bad that we got an office referral. Because that usually meant a call home which meant 2x the punishment. It just wasn’t worth it. Back in the day the paddle was still used and just the threat of it was enough to keep most of us straight. I got my ass cracked three times once in 7th grade for cutting class. Hurt so bad my butt was still smoking 6 weeks afterwards. I didn’t any reinforcements after that.

That would be fairy tale land for most of us. It is rarely the teaching that causes a teacher to quit the profession.

Most depressing Cedric and absolutely true.

Oh no, I’ve never actually heard of anything like that. I did know of one teacher who had had enough one day and kicked a desk while the kid was still in it. He retired that week.

That is ridiculous. You can’t call that a school.

I got paddled once in fourth grade for not doing my homework. She had the class vote on it, and they wanted me paddled. All I learned from that was when the next kid came up for paddling I was an enthusiastic yes! Paddle him. The rest of the class voted no, and I thought that was unfair.

My fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Reed, was a complete and total domineering bitch. She was short, fat and mean as a badger. She had a bad wig and even worse fake nails. I had recently been diagnosed with ADD and depression. She literally told my mother that having ADD was no reason that I could not be organized and attentive. My mom was like … “You don’t know much about ADD, do you?”

She had these four desks in a pod at the back of the room that the “bad kids” had to sit at. They had metal partitions so you couldn’t see the rest of the room. I spent pretty much the entire year in one. I didn’t act up in class, I wasn’t obtrusive or destructive or disruptive. I just didn’t pay attention or do my homework. I didn’t see why I had to sit between the kid who brought a gun to school and the kid who stabbed another kid with a pencil. My parents didn’t either, and protested this many times. The principal was basically too afraid of her to do anything about it.

I should have told someone about how when she’d get pissed at me, she’d sink her fucking claws into my scalp until it bled.

She’s retired now, and hopefully dead and burning in hell.
